I read an article a while ago saying that the author had to have an operation on his hand/wrist and the minimum recovery time was 6 months with no complications. From the description of the treatment and recovery time in the article it suggests (at least to me) that the author has muscle/ ligament damage which required surgery to recover but the article didn't say anything about the actual diagnosis. (Facts were confirmed by the announcement on webtoon)
It is possible that he may have had a common condition for many artists, carpal tunnel which if not treated early enough may need surgery for treatment, but this is just conjecture on my part.
As far as I'm aware there have been no further updates/ news.
Or June... it'll be the best birthday present ever!

PLEASE BE PATIENT FOR UPDATES if you didn't read this on webtoon where it's free... The creator SIU took a half year break to focus on recovery. During the continuation of ToG SIU sprained his wrist, he went to the hospital and doctor told him to take a break and recover. So that's what he's doing right now, so please be patient and wait for his recovery. He stated that by May of this year he'll try to get back if his wrist is healed
